"Spellbound"

"Spellbound"



There's an easy evening breeze
Moving softly through the trees
I feel my head begin to reel
Can't explain the way I feel
Now the moonlight is falling around her
Don't you know that
Tonight is the night for surrender
Can't you see it coming down
She's holding you spellbound, spellbound

She's got me hanging by a heartbeat
Burning in the evening heat
She takes me there and leaves breathless
Starry eyed, satisfied
When you're burning the bridges behind you
Don't you know that
Smoke can begin to blind you
Can't you see it coming down
It's holding you spellbound, spellbound

Now the moonlight is falling around her
Don't you know that
Tonight is the night for surrender
Can't you see it coming down

She's holding you spellbound, spellbound

She's holding on to me
She's holding on it's true
She's holding on, she won't let go
Spellbound
And she won't let go
Spellbound

"Standing In The Fire"

"Standing In The Fire"



Well I'm Standing In The Fire again
Everybody knows I'm a workin' man
In some ways it's either sink or swim
These days I don't mind givin' in
You get but one chance to go 'round
And make the most of what I found
I'm Standing In The Fire again
Everybody knows I'm a workin' man

I've been out of work for such a long long time
Every day down in the factory line
Gettin' on some kind, any kind of good news
Only knowin' there's nothin' left to lose
You get but one chance to go round
And make the most of what I found

I get to work on time every single day
Till the robot takes my job away

You never get out of this worried life
I do what I can while I'm markin' time
I bet,walk away I'm on sacred ground
Long long way from this factory sound

I'm Standing In The Fire again
Everybody knows I'm a workin' man
In some ways it's either sink or swim
These days I don't mind givin' in
I'm Standing In The Fire again
I'm Standing In The Fire again

"Starin' At The Sky"

"Starin' At The Sky"



I can remember when I used to see you passin' by
And it seemed in vain when it never changed
'Cause the only thing we said was 'Hi'
Then out of nowhere
We got together
'Cause we didn't try
But then just as fast as it came to pass
I was alone again starin' at the sky

I've come to discover you've got to think it out on your own
and it takes some time for the words to rhyme
To really feel what you've always knows
And when you break through
You might even feel
As though you can fly
But when it all comes down I hope I'm around
And not alone again starin' at the sky

Wonderin' why
I can't let go cause I,
I think you really know your mind
If you could show me a sign
And keep me from goin' blind.

"Stay (Night Until Noon)"

"Stay (Night Until Noon)"



Here I sit in my room
Nobody here but me and a simple tune
Hope you roll on in with the risin' moon
I wanna stay with you all night
Wanna stay with you night until noon - yes I do

Sayin' nothin', but feelin' strong
I'm a pretend poet with half a song
Hope you keep your word, wanna see you soon
I wanna stay with you all night
Wanna stay with you night until noon

Baby can you stay - stay until the break of day
I wanna feel your body sway
We can let them say what they want to
They can talk themselves into shades of blue
Baby I got lots of room
Wanna stay with you night until noon

We can let them say what they want to

They can talk themselves into shades of blue
Baby I got lots of room
Wanna stay with you night until noon

And my sometime friends say "Son' you better come around -
Get your feet back on the ground,
She's tryin' to fool ya...She only wants to do ya..."
Why are they so bent on bringing me down?

Here I'll sit and here I'll stay
And I'll be right here till you come my way
Somethings in the air - just about to bloom
I wanna stay with you all night
Wanna stay with you night until noon

Baby can you stay - stay until the break of day...

Stay...

"Stealaway"

"Stealaway"



Stealaway
My little darling
Far away
You and I

Lookin' at you and the way about you
Fallin' come easily
No one could ever guess we'd stand here
Lookin' to disagree

Where did it all go wrong?
It seems we had too many stars in our eyes
Now we are lookin' back to see
How many stars were lies

Stealaway
My little darling
Far away
You and I
Helplessly
Hangin' on
So darlin'
Stealaway

How did it get so damn confusin'?
Who cares who's wrong or right?
We gotta move out of all this darkness
To see a little light

Stealaway
My little darling
Far away
You and I
Helplessly
Hangin' on
So darlin'
Stealaway

"Stepping Stone"

"Stepping Stone"



Remember days when we were close and warm as night turned to dawn
Long heated summer days of sun and wine seemed too short at the time.

I would gladly make you happy, I would surely try
But you feel you must be free, so I must say so long and kiss you goodbye
'Cause I won't be your stepping stone
No, I won't be your stepping stone
No, I won't be your stepping stone
No, I won't be your stepping stone.

Remember fresh and sweet the thought of summer ways, loving nights, lazy days
Warm, scented evenings when we shared a lot to say, now the words fade away.

I would love to make you happy, I would surely try
But you feel you must be free, so I must say so long and kiss you goodbye
'Cause I won't be your stepping stone
No, I won't be your stepping stone
No, I won't be your stepping stone
No, I won't be your stepping stone
No, I won't be your stepping stone.

"Streets Of Paradise"

"Streets Of Paradise"


From a backwater town in Ohio, all the way down to New Orleans
Hiding deep in the bayou, waiting on a Northbound river queen

For too many years now, I've been the devil's own
In a midnight rage, I take the streets alone

[Chorus:]
Living in the shadows, hiding in the shadows of night
Wounded in the shadows, down on the streets,
down on the streets
Down on the streets of paradise

Walking around there was a wound in my head
For many long days I was left there for dead
So many miles from the borderline
Only half a man down on the streets tonight

Living in the shadows (hiding in the shadows of night)
Hiding in the shadows of night (wounded in the shadows)
Wounded in the shadows (lying in the shadows)
Down on the streets, down on the streets,
down on the streets of paradise
[repeats 2x]

"Susannah"

"Susannah"



Susannah there was peace between
our fathers
How we ceased lo be a bother
We would run together in the morning light
And separate until the cool of night
oh my Susannah

We can throw our dreams together
Though my other wing of feather
How can you stop the lightening,
In the sky and as the rains run red
One of the reasons why, oh my Susannah

It ain't safe to stay here any more
Got to load the wagon and head up north.
And rearrange their reasons in our minds


Keeping safe a way in the present times.
Keeping safe a way in the present times.

Susannah there was peace between
Our fathers
How we ceased to be a bother
We could run together in the morning light
And separate until the cool of night
Oh my Susannah, for me there ain't no other
I swear, I swear there ain't no other.
That won't stop the lightening in the sky
And as the rains run red,
One of the reasons why... Oh yeah you're
the light in the southern Sky, Susannah

"Sweet Lovin'"

"Sweet Lovin'"



Sweet sweet love
Sweet sweet love
To light her way

Sun shinin' in the night
My newborn child
Oh my, sharin' her lovin' with me
I can see in her smile
Wordless are the thoughts
She's tryin' to say
Oh my, maybe she's seein' the light
Of a brighter day

So give her some lovin'
Sweet sweet love
Sweet sweet love
Sweet sweet love

To light her way

Tears runnin' down my face in ecstacy
Oh my, how we gave life to this child
Baby you and me
With the love we shared inside

She found her way
Oh my, you know it makes me feel
So much more for today

So give her some lovin'
Sweet sweet love
Sweet sweet love
Sweet sweet love
To light her way

"That's What Love Is All About"

"That's What Love Is All About"



She could pack her things and slip away
Save her pride for another day
He could go on pretendin'
He's said, all there is to say

That if love is never ending
When broken hearts need mending
They find a way to hold on to
What matters most of all

There are no rules, there are no truths
No reason, there's no rhyme
There's just your heart, to see you through
It tells you every time

And when you feel it down deep inside
Without a doubt
That's what love is
That's what love is all about

Oh, it's a crazy world and she knows it
She knows how the pieces fit
All the things that they've been through
They're too hard to forget

But if love is never ending
When broken notes need mending
They find a way to hold on to
What matters most of all

There are no rules, there are no truths
No reason, there's no rhyme
There's just your heart, to see you through
It tells you every time

And when you feel it down deep inside
Without a doubt
That's what love is
That's what love is all about

So, she'll have a little faith
And hold on a little harder
'Cause she knows just what it takes
And that's what love has taught her

There are no rules, there are no truths
No reason, there's no rhyme
There's just your heart, to see you through
It tells you every time

And when you feel it down deep inside
Without a doubt
That's what love is
That's what love is all about

That's what love is
That's what love is all about
